    Oil Leak

    Hey Guys, I did an oil change on my 02 WRX a couple weeks ago. This is the second oil change since I bought the car and I decided to put semi synthetic 5w-30 instead regular mineral oil. I noticed some oil spots on the ground here and there and found that the oil was coming from a part of the car that I am unfamiliar with. Anyone know what this is from the picture? Is this a common problem on WRX's?

    Thanks, Braydon

    Is it motor oil or gear oil? I can't tell from the pic.

    It's actually power steering. After further investigation, it was the fitting above that mount that was loose. Tightened it up this morning, we'll see if it keeps leaking.
